NOT EVERYONE IN AMERICA OWNS A FUCKING AMERICAN EXPRESS CARD YOU JACKASSES!!!!

GET OVER YOURSELVES--VISA WORKS JUST AS GOOD, YOU BASTARDS!


Well, that's it, I guess. No Bon Jovi for me.

Bastards.

I would offer to help, but I have Visa too. :)

Thanks, Dave. :)

It's okay. There's still tomorrow, after the the prime seats have already gone to the priviledged few. I'll try again then and see if they'll let the rest of us 'white trash' in, then.

What really sucks? I threw out a pre-approved app for American Express two months ago, because I didn't like their APR rates and how they handled some things. :/

This is the second Bon Jovi concert (as wella s the second concert ever) I've tried to get to in as many years. I'm beginning to think the universe is trying to tell me 'no'.

Do you know anyone with an AE card who'd do it for you? You could give them the cash and then they could charge it.

Nope! We is all under the allowable wire for that around here (except for me, it seems). I think my dad has one, but this isn't one of those things that's...proper to ask your dad for. Also...he's not home. Or I might consider begging anyway. XD

Like I said, it's okay. I'll wait and join the slavering masses tomorrow at 10. And if they still won't take my VISA, then they can kiss my lily-white ass, and Jon better hope I never get close enough to him to tell him off for letting his label pull that kind of bullshit.

(Yes, that last part is just sarcasm. Mostly. If only because I'd have gotten over it by then and my celt temper laid to rest.)

That's like the one card I don't have. Really, the pre-sale was American Express only? That really sucks!!

I wasn't going to go anyway because for some reason whoever booked these concerts chose like NO Saturdays. Anyone I could feasibly get to...Dallas, OKC or Denver, mainly, is on a weeknight and would require two days off work. They're like the blue-collar rock band of America! Why make it so damn hard to see the damn show??

Seriously. I'm going to pretend Jon had nothing to do with it, but I don't believe he has no pull with the label.

They're looking less blue collar as this goes on.

Maybe someone needs to send the guy a personal note and show him. And go 'Hey, remember when you were down here? Well, that's where most of your fans still are, buddy. Time to rethink this."

I would've put you up, too. :/

And yep, American Express only. NO other cred cards are available, and no other method of payment, either. So even if you used, say, your debit card straight out to buy a ticket (if you were lucky enough to have that kind of play cash), you wouldn't be able to do it anyway. There's nothing in the dropdown window except AE, and the phone line auto responce is 'this event available only to American Express card holders.

I'm all for 'if you have this, you get special deals', but not 'you can't get any sort of deal at all, let alone the special one, if you don't have this'.

...Those were called MONOPOLIES once upon a time, you know?
